thanks for your posts. now my mom and dad have decided not to do the brain radiation as a doctor told them if they did it now prevenitvly and got it in the brain it could be harder to treat. as far as the new spot in is inbetween the two lungs not in the lungs. my question is this, they are telling them they will check the spot in 3 months and determine if its cancer then. dosen't that seem like a long time to wait with sclc? every doc they talked to said 3 months. by the way they think the spot might be a gland inflamed from the bec2 vacannations she had (maybe)
